Improving NIOS2 performance, problems with memory map

My starting point was a project for the Trenz CYC1000 which couples a Cyclone 10 LP with a 64M bit SDRAM memory chip. I'm successfully developing and running a NIOS2 application but the performance i...

    Thanks for that. I've looked at the description of mgptop and I'm not really any the wiser. In the mean time I've got it to link by putting onchip memory just below the SDRAM so there aren't big gaps in memory space. There look to be a lot of settings that should improve performance (e.g. separate interrupt stack) but I'm guessing a lot of them may also just break the project. I'm reluctant to change anything I don't really understand.
